"A wild work by Kishimoto Kennin enclosed in the original singed wooden box.  The large work is of torn and scarred Iga clay, covered with a dusting of natural molten ash pooling as glass in the crevices.  It is 11 inches (28 cm) diameter, 13-1/2 inches (34.5 cm) tall.and in fine condition.  &lt;br&gt;\r\nKennin has been working with clay since the 1950s, devouring styles along the way. Shino, Seto, Oribe, Iga and Celadon, all very different approaches which he masters one at a time, extending his unique view of the arts to new realms, and moving on to the next challenge when his appetite and personal genius has been satiated. He was exhibited and prized at the National Japanese Crafts Exhibition (Nihon Dento Kogei Ten), National Ceramics Exhibition (Nihon Togei Ten), Chunichi International Ceramics Exhibition (Chunichi Kokusai Togei Ten) and Asahi Togei Ten among others, and is held in several important international collections.  His Iga work is particularly remembered.  \r\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
